Really surprised Walker is the first drop out. Maybe the deal is he gets the nod at the convention if everything goes haywire between now and then.
Well, that wasn't surprising. I just saw Walker as the likely compromise choice between the realists and the crusaders that are struggling over the future of the GOP right now. He's the guy you can sell to the Club For Growth and the Tea Party and not have the Neo-cons go berserk in the process.
in the past a guy like Walker would have a serious chance at the nomination. but the party has gone off the deep end with sensationalism so things have changed signifcantly
I don't think the GOP has tried to go off the deep end with sensationalism. I think they're weak enough at the core right now that they haven't been able to stop the Trumps and Cruz's from going there on their own. I think they haven't been able to fully rein in the Tea Party. I think the button-down nature of the GOP is very much in question right now and not because they aren't trying to get things on track again. They're having problems with basic competency issues. At the national level voters want you to lead and to govern and the GOP is riddled with emerging power brokers who don't think government works and don't want to govern. Scott Walker is a perfect example of a button down guy who has actually governed and who leads, even if you don't like where the leadership led to. He can't connect with the average GOP voter right now because they've been led to a government is bad, people who talk about government are bad position. He's also probably not qualified to be President but who on the GOP side really has those bonafides at this point? Only Jeb Bush has the standing and he has two ruinous Presidencies in the family already. HW was ruinous for the GOP but not for America and W was ruinous for both.
he was never mentioned (TRUMP) but the episode was about wall building. Canada in return build a wall to keep us out and that caused problems for us..
Controversial South Park episode shows Donald Trump being raped and murdered: Show attacks tycoon's run for President, his immigration policies and then kills him off in shocking final scene South Park launched vicious attack on Trump and his election policies Shows character Mr Garrison pledging to 'f***' illegal immigrants to death Promise is in reference to Trump's real-world zero-tolerance approach Also brands Trump a 'brash a*******' and a 'joke' that got out of hand Garrison also pledges to build a wall between the U.S. and Canada But when Canada beats him to it, he travels into the country before carrying out his sick rape threat on Trump himself Donald Trump was on the receiving end of a vicious take-down by South Park on Wednesday evening, which skirted the borders of decency and taste and arguably crossed them. In an almost unprecedented attack on a running presidential candidate, the adult cartoon lampooned the Republican and in a shocking finale, showed the billionaire businessman being brutally raped to death. The inflammatory episode of the satirical cartoon, created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, was supposed to attack Trump's immigration policies and mocked his oft-repeated promise to build a wall between the US and Mexico. +13 Shocking: Satirical cartoon South Park has aired an inflammatory new episode which mocks Donald Trump before showing the presidential candidate being raped to death in a shocking scene +13 Brutal: The episode - called 'Where My Country Gone' in reference to Trump's election slogan 'Make America Great Again - launched a scathing attack on The Donald and his policies +13 Safety Dance: In it, Trump is shown as becoming the President of Canada causing all of the Canadians to flee across the border into America, creating an immigration problem The show had featured Trump briefly once before, back in 2001, but had largely steered clear of mocking him - until now. Tycoon Trump, 69, has yet to respond to the episode which was entitled 'Where My Country Gone'. The eye-opening episode showed South Park being overrun by Canadian immigrants, prompting high school teacher Mr Garrison to launch a political career aimed at getting rid of them. Fired from his job at the school for referring to Canadian children as 'canucks', he begins running for election under the slogan 'Where my country gone' which he has printed on to a hat in clear reference to Trump's 'Make American great again' mantra. He then begins holding rallies, at which several people are carrying banners with Trump's actual slogan on, proposing a radical policy on immigrants. 'I propose we f*** them all to death,' Mr Garrison tells a CNN journalist, as a shocking answer as how he would deal with the influx migrants. Asked what he means by the remark, Mr Garrison continues. 'We round them up, pull down their pants and f*** them 'til their souls leave their bodies. Then we build a wall.' However, his mood turns sour after the journalist informs him that Canada has already built a wall across the border with America - a clear riposte to Trump's supposedly simple plan to prevent illegal immigration into the US.

Meh. There was no there there. An empty suit. He did contribute some great ideas, though. How about that wall on the Canadian border? Heh.
acutally I would think the neo-cons would have a problem with Walker since he had zero foreign policy experience or knowledge.
